Summary:
Kenshin Himura was an assassin for the Imperial side during the war that ended the Shogunate and installed the Meiji government. After killing countless people, he made a vow to never kill again. Ten years later, he finds a home at a failing dojo, only to be caught up in a string of murders related to an opium ring. His commitment to never taking a life is put to the test as the people heβs come to care about are threatened by figures from his past.
I enjoyed watching this movie, cos it had some nice action scenes ,music and talented actors. If they followed the manga's plot more, it'd be magnificent. Well, the scenario wasn't the strong point,cos there were many differences from the anime and the movie ended suddenly. I'd really like to see the fight against Shisio, and generally the JyuuponKatana members fighting against Saito, Kenshin and Sano. One thing i also didn't like, was the fact that they changed Aoshi's Oniwaban group with some other strange looking guys. On the other hand, the actors were very talented and they looked like the manga's characters ,something which is very important in my opinion. Generally, it's a nice movie.
